ABSTRACTThe results of photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) studies from partially oxidized porous silicon (POPS) layers are presented. The PL from POPS is stable, peaks at 600-570 nm and its temperature dependence can be fitted by an exponential law with an activation energy Ea « 10 meV. The current-voltage characteristics of Au-(POPS)-crystalline silicon (c-Si) structures follow a power law I = Vn. When the index n becomes higher than 3, electroluminescence (EL) is found. The EL peaks at 760 nm and is stable for more than 100 hours of operation. The intensity of the EL is a linear function of current for all measured structures up to current density J ≈ 1 A/cm2. Our results suggest that partially oxidized porous silicon is more useful for device applications than freshly anodized porous silicon which has unstable properties or than fully oxidized porous silicon in which transport is poor.

A method for testing the compliance of experimental current-voltage characteristics with a cold field emission mode is described. The method is based on the variation of voltage power-law exponent in the semilogarithmic coordinates ln (I/U^k) vs1/U, as well as the statistical analysis of experimental data fluctuations. It is shown that the current-voltage characteristics obtained using the high-voltage fast-scanning technique have a better fit to the field emission law than the characteristics given by a slow scanning with a constant voltage. A multi-tip nanocomposite emitter based on carbon nanotubes was taken as a sample. For processing experimental data, it was proposed to use modified Fowler-Nordheim coordinates with a voltage power-law exponent of 1.24.

Utilization of superconducting materials for the new generation of nanoelectronic devices seems extremely tempting from the point of view of the absence of Joule heating. However, in small systems, the role of fluctuations can be very significant. In this work, the transport properties of thin superconducting titanium nanostructures were studied experimentally and theoretically. It has been shown that quantum fluctuations of the order parameter have a dif-ferent impact on integral and local characteristics of a quasi-one-dimensional superconductor. In sufficiently thin nanowires, a finite electrical resistance can be observed at the lowest tem-peratures, while the tunneling current-voltage characteristics exhibit only slightly broadened gap singularity and a finite Josephson current. The observation is of fundamental importance for understanding the phenomenon of mesoscopic superconductivity and should be taken into account when designing nanometer scale cryoelectronic devices.
